Chapter 760: This Is ...... Challenge? (Add)

On the day when the whole Chelsea team was resting, the powerful London media broke the news that Abramovich had announced a huge reward policy at the team's party last night.

"According to reliable sources, last night Chelsea hosted the team's defending league title party at the Carswell Hotel, and the owner Abramovich offered a huge reward of 5 million pounds for the FA Cup winner and 10 million pounds for the Champions League winner, which is undoubtedly a heavy blow to Manchester United, who are slightly inferior to Chelsea in overall strength, and Chelsea also offered such a huge bonus, and the so-called heavy reward must be a brave man, driven by a total of 15 million pounds. Chelsea will undoubtedly win the last two titles of the season......"

The Sun headline: Generous Chelsea owner.

Of course, at the time of The Sun's presence on the British newsstands, the pro-United media blasted Chelsea, arguing that Chelsea players were slaves to money and unworthy of the noble FA Cup and elegant Champions League titles.

It's just that most of the media know that this is just a pro-Manchester United media complaint.

The so-called uneaten grapes are always sour.

Since Manchester United was bought by the Glazer family's leverage, it has consciously reduced its investment in the team, and its competitiveness has plummeted, and it is still unknown whether this Manchester United will be able to reach the Champions League final for two consecutive seasons without the hard support of Ferguson.

Seeing Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich squirting rubles in his hands, it is not uncommon for the media and fans who support Manchester United to choose to despise Chelsea.

Even Ferguson pouted and insinuated: "Some teams just need to use money as bait, otherwise they are nothing, a group of investors who only know how to measure football with money do not understand football, real football does not have such a strong copper smell!" ”

In the afternoon of the same day, Mourinho was interviewed by reporters: "Some people are just living envy, jealousy and hatred, if a club offers you a symbolic annual salary of one pound to make you the manager, are you willing?" Don't say that we smell of copper, but in the end, we are all the same, don't professional football eat all youthful meals? In this era of rapid growth in consumption levels, why not take advantage of your good years to earn more? ”

So when Mourinho's words reached Ferguson, he was speechless, and no one could not have asked for material rewards for the sake of so-called real football.

It is worth mentioning that the two teams who have qualified for this season's FA Cup final are not as full of gunpowder as before, they have played each other countless times in recent seasons, and they have a qualitative understanding of each other's level, and there is no need to focus on the outside of the game, otherwise it will look like a loser and loser.

Of course, this kind of thinking is common to Manchester United players.

In the last two seasons, Chelsea have won all of their games except for the Community Shield defeat at the beginning of the season.

Therefore, it also let most Manchester United players know that instead of focusing on the game, it is better to focus on the game completely, and maybe they can win the championship in a hurry!

※※※

In the two days leading up to the FA Cup final, Manchester United's training was much more targeted than Chelsea's restorative training, and they were very committed to training after losing to Chelsea in a number of games.

Especially Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney.

As team-mates, the players at Carrington's first-team training base know that Cristiano Ronaldo is desperate to beat Chelsea with Iroh in the next two finals and prove to Europe that he is the best player in the world!

Under his leadership, the atmosphere of hard training also appeared.

At the same time, Messi continued to train hard despite Barcelona being eliminated from the Champions League final.

But...... Frequent high-load training has also caused him problems, as he has suffered a thigh strain due to physical fatigue, which means he will have to recuperate for at least two weeks and return to the Copa del Rey final at the earliest.

It's just that after Barcelona was eliminated, except for a little attention from the media in Catalonia, the eyes of other media were not here.

Because there's still a big game to watch for them – the FA Cup final between Chelsea vs Manchester United.

Of course, it wasn't Chelsea and Manchester United that captured the attention of the entire European media, but the FA Cup final was arguably a 'dress rehearsal' for the Champions League final at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome half a month later.

On the day of the game, the new 90,000-seat Wembley Stadium sold out all of its tickets, except for the location left behind by the safety hazards.

In the regular press conference before the game, Iroh and Cristiano Ronaldo were led by their respective coaches, and it is interesting to note that the two men expressed the same meaning, both of them were full of confidence in the upcoming FA Cup final.

Two hours later, the players from both sides entered the stadium to warm up, and the stands at the new Wembley Stadium were nearly 70% full, and it was estimated that the entire stadium would be full after waiting for more than half an hour or so.

The early arrival of the two sides of the stadium was clearly distinguished, with Chelsea's blue and Manchester United's red becoming the main colour of the stadium, and they began to hang banners, slogans and huge posters of their beloved stars under the leadership of their respective fan associations, the most attractive of which was the huge poster of Iello hanging by the Chelsea fans who occupied the north stand, and the huge posters seemed to come to life under the excitement of the fans, dancing in the air, and on closer inspection, four more trophies were added to last season's seven titles......

This is how they predict the outcome of the game - the title goes to the Blues!

At this time, there are also many fans who have not been able to buy tickets to wander around the stadium to see if they can meet those fans who have temporary things and cannot watch the game to refund their tickets.

The rehearsal before the Champions League final is not to be missed in any case, but they are also mentally prepared to cheer the team on the big TV screen outside the stadium if they really can't get into the stadium to cheer for the team!

※※※

At the moment when the players from both sides entered the field to warm up, the on-site director immediately switched the camera to the faces of Iello and Cristiano Ronaldo, and advanced the camera through guò technical means, and then displayed the two shots in two on the big screen.

Whether it is the fans inside the stadium or the fans outside the stadium, they are all shouting excitedly at this moment, and this person in their minds is the best storage zài!

"Fuck those damn red ghosts!"

"Fuck you-damn mercenaries, shut up!"

"Ai Ai Ai, the king of the finals!!"

'The title belongs to the great Red Devils, Chelsea fuck off!!'

……

At the same time, fierce arguments erupted on the periphery of the stadium, and even some radical fans began to move and push, but the security personnel patrolling the vicinity of the stadium reacted very quickly and returned to calm under their interference.

The camera returns to the new Wembley Stadium, where the frenetic atmosphere of the 2008-2009 FA Cup final is slowly developing as the stands fill up.

As in previous games between Manchester United and Chelsea, Iello and his friends Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney hugged each other before heading to their respective camps to warm up.

The pre-match warm-up lasted almost 40 minutes, during which the fans of both sides in the stands proved their existence by singing guò, and also rehearsed for the FA Cup final to come, after more than ten minutes, the players competed on the pitch and the fans in the stands cheered and shouted for a different kind of 'fight'!

The United players returning to the dressing room were all in high spirits and looked ready to beat Chelsea in the upcoming FA Cup final, especially Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney.

'If I'm not mistaken, we've only won one game against Chelsea in the last two seasons, right? Oh...... By the way, it seems to be the Community Shield at the beginning of the season, and like all the other official matches were lost, am I not mistaken? ”

Speaking of which, Ferguson looked up at the starting eleven standing two meters in front of him, each player's expression was extremely rich, which made him very satisfied, as long as the player's fighting spirit was stimulated before the game, then after the game started, it would definitely get twice the result with half the effort!

Immediately, Ferguson added another fire to the team: "Do you know what the outside world says about us? They say we went to the final to get to the final to secure Chelsea to the title! Can you tolerate it? ”

"No!"

The veteran Ryan Giggs, as a witness to the Manchester United dynasty, was naturally the first to disagree!

The rest of the squad also said that they knew from the first day they joined Manchester United that they were a great team, and they had lost enough against Chelsea in the past two seasons, so the next FA Cup final and the Champions League final in half a month must be won!

Be sure to win!

Ferguson was like a demagogue who appealed to the starters, not emphasizing the tactical core of the game until the first three minutes of the game.

Jose Mourinho did not deliberately mobilize the emotions of his players like Ferguson, and the £5 million promised by owner Roman Abramovich before the game was the best motivator, and he believed that every player present would not refuse the title and the prize money!

Ten minutes later, players from both sides re-entered the new Wembley Stadium and gave the fans in the stands a new feeling.

It seems like...... More combative.

After a series of pre-match rounds, players from both sides waited for kick-off.

Cristiano Ronaldo stepped on the football, and next to him was Rooney, and both of them looked up proudly at Iello in tacit understanding.

This is...... Challenge?
